A place to appreciate the twentieth century comic character Everett True of "The Outbursts of Everett True." Feel free to check out the sticky.
"No context Thursday" is all about guessing the context of an Everett True strip without having any prior information about it. The full strip will later be revealed in a spoiler in the post body.
Obligatory disclaimer: NCT is completely optional to tune in for. Those who want to make a guess are free to do so. Regular comic strips are always allowed to be posted, even on NCT.
Now; what do you think the context behind this is?

You're supposed to say "NO! That does NOT make you look fat." How about YOU "Ask the mirror" instead!
Mrs. True, don't rush me! This blasted tie is crooked.
First panel: wife is looking in the mirror, Everett with a snide remark: "if you dont put on some makeup you are likely to break that mirror" Second panel: what we are currently seeing with the additional speech bubble from the wife: "you didn't put on any makeup, look what you did to the mirror!"
"Mrs True, I bought you this mirror so you could improve your fashion sense. Do you even know how to use it?"
"You. Do. NOT. Suggest. Eating. The pet rabbit. For. Dinner!!!"
